Who Can Benefit from Implant-Supported Dentures?

Ideal candidates include:

• Patients missing all teeth in one or both jaws.

• People struggling with loose or slipping dentures.

• Individuals who want better chewing and speaking ability.

• Patients with sufficient jawbone density to support implants (or who can undergo bone grafting).

• Those looking for a long-term, natural-looking tooth replacement solution.

Even older patients or those with long-term denture use can benefit from implant-supported dentures, provided they are in good general health.

Types of Implant-Supported Dentures

1. Fixed Implant-Supported Dentures

   • Permanently attached to implants.

   • Can only be removed by a dentist.

   • Provide maximum stability and function.

2. Removable Implant-Supported Dentures (Overdentures)

   • Snap onto implants but can be removed for cleaning.

   • Easier to maintain oral hygiene.

   • Offer a combination of stability and convenience.

Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures

Patients often call them “life-changing.” Here’s why:

• Stability: No slipping or clicking sounds.

• Better Chewing: Eat your favorite foods comfortably.

• Clear Speech: Speak with confidence without worrying about dentures moving.

• Bone Health: Prevents jawbone shrinkage caused by missing teeth.

• Natural Look: Gives a more youthful and attractive smile.

• Long-Lasting: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.

Procedure Steps for Implant-Supported Dentures

The treatment is usually done in phases. Here’s a breakdown:

Step 1: Consultation

• Free consultation at Esthetica in Vadodara.

• Complete oral exam, X-rays, and scans.

• Discussion of treatment options and costs.

Step 2: Implant Placement

• Dental implants are surgically placed into your jawbone.

• Usually 4 to 6 implants per jaw.

• Local anesthesia or sedation is used for comfort.

Step 3: Healing Period (Osseointegration)

• The implants fuse with the bone.

• Healing time: 3–6 months.

• Temporary dentures may be provided during this phase.

Step 4: Abutment Placement

• Small connectors (abutments) are attached to the implants.

• They will hold the denture securely.

Step 5: Final Denture Placement

• Custom-made denture is fixed onto the implants.

• Adjustments are done for perfect fit and comfort.

Possible Side Effects or Problems

Like any dental treatment, there can be minor issues, but they are manageable with proper care.

• Mild swelling or discomfort after surgery.

• Temporary difficulty in speaking or chewing.

• Risk of infection (rare with proper hygiene).

• Implant failure if bone does not heal properly (rare).

Our team takes every precaution to minimize risks and ensure safe recovery.

How to Care for Implant-Supported Dentures

• Brush and clean daily like natural teeth.

• Use non-abrasive toothpaste.
